The shop I had paint the hull , did redo some gelcoat around the rub rail . I replaced the rub rail also , but he mixed his own color. There is a company on ebay that I have bought Grady White color gel coat from and it is a very good match.

Sorry I just seen this message , I removed both bulkeds and still had to notch the steps. There is no way to remove the tank whole without notching the steps or rear compartment.

Trying to figure out how to load photos , my files are too large .

Thank you !

Thank you !

This was a year long project that's almost done ! New stringers , bulkeds, fuel tank , bow thruster , and repowered. Paint is Awlgrip Stars and Stripes blue , red bottom paint.

I just ordered the Bow Thruster , joystick controller , wiring harness , fiberglass tube from Mauripro Sailing . The total was $2153.00 , they are having some kind of sale. This was the 100 pound thrust unit (VTSBOW4512D) not ignition protected. Best price I could find . I was quoted 9K from...

Great info, Thank you for the installation guide

Thank you for the info and quick response ! I ordered the Vetus last night , hopefully they aren't on backorder.

Thank you for sharing this installation , looks awesome ! I will be doing the same mod to my islander this fall , how far forward is your tube from the bulkhead ? The height was not an issue for the forward compartment cover to go on ? Thank you again for sharing

Pulled the Trigger today , Bought a 2020 Suzuki DF300 . Thank you for your input !

Thank you so much for the link ! I searched and somehow missed your post , I will keep you posted how I make out ? My brother had suggested the same thing that you did with the bore scope , this boat spent it's life in fresh water so we'll see how it looks underneath ? Thank you again !

Hi , I pulled up the access covers on the floor and want to remove and inspect the main fuel tank . The tank looks good from what I can see but still want to inspect the bottom to make sure. It looks like if I cut the one bulkhead closest to the tank and trim the back one down I can slide it out...

This 225 that's on the boat now has an extension on it , you can remove it to make the leg shorter. Right now it's set up as a 30 inch . I am thinking at least twin 200 hp engines ? see what comes along .
